      At this point in the Valley race, UNI is the clear favorite. They may not go undefeated, but I don't see they losing more than 2.

      The race for the 2 seed in the Valley tournament looks interesting. WSU, Mo St, and Ill St are the most likely competitors.

      Mo St and In St has caused some real concerns for many other Valley teams. They were to be the other two play-in teams. Mo St won't be there and In St probably not. In St is still untested in the Valley as they have not played any of the other top 4 teams as yet. That will change with all four of their next games. If In St wins just one of those games, Bradley, Creighton, and SIU may be scrambling to stay out of Thursday's games. Who would have thunk it!

      One big thing in the Shocker's favor, is that they finish the season with 3 of 4 games at home. The problem is getting there. The Shocks will be facing their own sizeable test and it won't be for just 4 games. They play 6 of their next 9 on the road and their 3 homes games are UNI, Ill St and In St. Nevertheless, having already played Ill St and Mo St on the road and sitting at 4-1, the Shox future is in their own hands.

        We NEED to win at Carbondale, no way around it. Probably one of the biggest games that could help or hurt our at large chances.

          I think a loss (or loses) at Drake, Evansville, Creighton, Bradley, or In St would hurt worse.

            They would, but I am hoping we take care of business against those teams.

              Losing those is a reason to look at post-season tournaments that do not begin with the letter "N".
              The future's so bright - I gotta wear shades.
              We like to cut down nets and get sized for championship rings.

                I think that WSU and UNI will lose a game to the teams you just mentioned. Somebody will get hot and a road game will be lost. The winner in the Valley will have 3-4 losses. I think that losing a home game will be a bigger loss and when we do lose a game, the question will be whether we can pick it back up where we were and not lose more than one in a row.

                  Tennesee is ahead of KU by 6, 9 min left. Vols are playing with 6 scholarship players and 3 walk-ons, 4 of their players are suspended right now.

                    3 are suspended, Tyler Smith was removed from the team. Bad situation, last year Smith was a predicted lottery pick. Hopefully he can learn from this. Didn't Bone go to SIU??

                      Yeah he did. He was a pretty decent ball player for them. He averaged around 8 points a game and was a good outside shooter. I am glad he is not there now.

                        Tennessee has a few recogniable faces on their team...Bobby Maze and Josh Bone. Interesting.

                                I was thinking the same thing.
